Equinor has extended its agreement with CHC Helikopter Service for personnel transport and search and rescue services in Central Norway until 2030.

Equinor has exercised two options with CHC. The agreement ensures the continued provision of helicopter capacity essential to safe personnel transport and emergency preparedness for Equinor’s operations in the region.

“Safe transportation of personnel to and from our installations is a prerequisite for safe operations. With this extension, we are securing robust and predictable helicopter services in Central Norway until 2030. This is a region with a high level of activity for Equinor”, says Mette Ottøy, Senior Vice President for Joint Operations Support at Equinor.

CHC will continue to provide helicopter services from bases in Kristiansund and Brønnøysund, as well as search-and-rescue services at Heidrun. The contract provides predictability for maintaining current helicopter preparedness and capacity throughout the option period.
